excuse my n00bness i only just got it last weekend! but.....here goes,

with my SeriesII RSFour S

when i'm in first, i can hit i think 5500ish RPM then it feels like it holds at 5500RPM,

and i have to change gear.... then second will go past 5500...

has that got something to do with the ECU limiting how far i can push it in first?

or something else u think?

:banana:

( or just get a friend to sit in and help )

i'm sure the 4WD models don't have traction control, only the RWD ones so it wouldn't be that.

when you say its holds at 5500 rpm does it feel like a rev limit of more of a flat spot? if it feels like a flat spot it could be a few things, could be the intake pipe sucking closed a bit, if you still have the stock exhaust or dump/front pipe you could be feeling the restriction. it also could be the slight flat spot experienced when the VVT switches off (around 5k rpm).

it did feel more like a flat spot than a limit maybe.. i'll try and figure exactly where and when its happening! :D

actually noticed a small exaust bandage after having a good look, would that be the source if its not sealed 100% ? :)

i think its a 3" exaust system from the looks of it

might have to get some help with this one i'm quite a n00b.

it came with an aftermarket intercooler on the front, with nice shiny pipes :)

aswell as an aftermarket pod filter and a BOV.

i'll keep investigating..

LOL.

I still don't know how you got all that passed road worthy (let alone VicRoads).

Do you have the stock ECU or is there a piggyback installed?

Not sure why you need to hit 5.5k in 1st gear though!

I like to hit redline in first, it's just fun :D

Why? Why not! lol. Besides, the old RB25 doesn't really open up till around 5k rpm.

but gets you nowhere.

It's more the sound of the reving engine :D Mine still pulls to redline but it's does weaken off towards the end.

I'm dreaming of a high-flow and a remap :)

yeah its a bit laggy down low, really opens up 4.5->6.5 , i was just a bit unsure as to why it wont get deep into the 'nice range' in 1st.

maybe give SSV a call about it??? for my case i'm saying it came with the car stock standard from the dealer :) i didnt do the RW or register it. :D

i'm not sure about if its a stock ECU i'll have a check tonight!

checked my intercooler thismorning.... its a "Blitz" from what it says on it.

4.5-6.5??

You may want to check if you a "stock" turbo hiding down there.

Don't think Nissan made a turbo with that much lag from factory.

Note that he can go past 5000 in other gears just not 1st!

what boost controller is it running? I know the AVC-R that I have you can limit boost by gear, so that could be it - but even if that WAS it , would make no sense as you can still rev past 5000 if you are still making normal boost.

No joke it blows.

Ive done the majority of bolt ons (coil packs, plugs, FMIC, 3" turbo back, EBC, SAFCII, SITC, Coil overs, camber arms, toe arms ect ect...) and its just starting to pull pretty well just if it had a real gear box :'(

      Took a little trip  went to nismo hoping the get my fuel tank hoses and unfortunately they told me they didn’t have stock luckily I was able to go to a Nissan parts store and they were able to order them in for me  then can home and cleaned the tank with some degreaser and fitted the new hoses before putting it back in the car

      100% I’ll hack into the 33. Strap a turbo onto the RB25DE and/or put the 25 head on a 30 block. 33 passed in cos the reserve was too high. I’ll try lowballing it again and negotiate. Aim is to have it landed and on the road for under 15k, then spend the same amount on top in mods.

      It's generally best practise to run 1x run without VCT enabled, then 1x run enabled till redline. Overlay the two torque graphs and you'll find the desired RPM to turn off VCT. Sometimes, it might be even worthwhile turning off VCT earlier control torque/cylinder pressure and using VCT purely to spool the turbo.

      First time I ever have issues with Amazon, but my wife often tells me to keep an eye out for fakes. It finally got me. I wrapped up the conversation with Gates. The gentlemen I was talking to seemed to hate his job but the response time on their technical support is outstanding. He stated that the hose is marked with some variation of "SAE J30R10" but that if you only purchase a 1 foot length like I did, it is possible to get a cut between markings and have a blank hose. To no ones surprise, he stated the swelling and "gummyness" isn't normal and to replace/buy from somewhere else (He mentioned NAPA). I'll toss a small end of the new one in gas for a few days before pulling the hanger out again, just to be safe.  Hose should arrive Monday. For those running multiple pump in tank hangers, you know the joys of getting them out and back in. I'm surprised I haven't destroyed my level float yet.  Lastly once I wrap all of this up, I'm planning on hitting the dyno again in 2 weeks while I'm on vacation. I realized recently that my VCT is set to turn off at 5000RPM. I'm surprised it wasn't increased while I was on the dyno last. I'm expecting I can increase it to ~6500RPM, if not more. Should hopefully get another 15-20kw out of it. I also want him to revisit my knock thresholds. I'm occasionally getting false knock around 3000rpm.
